Comment(by cypherpunks):

 After updating firefox from v15.0.1 to v16.0.1 the browser starts but I
 cannot reach any URL typed in the address bar or any bookmarked one.

 The error console shows messages like this one for each URL I've tried to
 reach

 {{{
 [10-18 14:23:04] Torbutton NOTE: Blocking nullprinciple request from:
 [scrubbed]
 }}}

 Closing firefox and restarting it doesn't work apparently because firefox
 silently shuts down .
